Sleep/Wake and Music Playing???

Even though the instructions say that when the iPod goes to sleep the music will still play, mine doesn't. Please help.

Thank you. I didn't realize that my headphones might not have been plugged in all the way because I was actually hearing music for those 2 minutes before the backlight went off. I am hesitant to push hard on anything because I don't want to break things but it worked. Thanks again.

MY iphone5 is stuck on apple logo. Sleep/wake and home button together don't work and connecting to iTunes doesn't either. Anyone any ideas

You need to hold both those buttons down for several seconds, until the Apple logo reappears. Don't release until then.

Hi Sharbear24,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I understand your iPad will not charge or turn on. I know you have tried resetting the iPad and still get no response. One step you may not have tried is putting the iPad into recovery mode and attempting the restore in iTunes.
iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3281
Resolution
If a single application is not responding or stops responding when it opens, you can force it to close.
If the device is unresponsive or if certain controls aren't working as expected, restart your device.
If the device remains unresponsive or does not turn on (or power on), reset your device.
If there is no video or if the screen remains black, verify that the device has enough charge to turn on:
If you are using an iPad, ensure that it's connected to the USB Power Adapter supplied with the device.
Let it charge for at least twenty minutes, then see if it starts normally.
If there is no image on the screen, press the Sleep/Wake button to attempt to wake the device.
If the screen displays a red battery icon, continue charging the device until the battery is fully charged. Learn more about charging iPhone and iPod touch, or iPad.
If the above steps do not resolve the issue, or the if the screen remains black or shows a persistent Apple logo, try restoring with iTunes:
Connect the device to your computer and open iTunes.
If the device appears in iTunes, select and click Restore on the Summary pane. Learn more aboutrestoring iOS software.
If the device doesn't appear in iTunes, try to force the device into recovery mode, and then restore it.
If the above steps do not resolve the issue, contact Apple.
If the device will not go into recovery mode and restore and you cannot get any response at all, it may be necessary to continue with step 6 listed above and contact Apple.
I hope this helps,
-Joe

While editing, my photos stopped changing. Even as the red line moves and music plays, the photo is stuck. How do I fix it?

BDAqua and old comm guy,
thanks so much for the good advice. I used both of these and now the problem has stopped. first I checked the finder crash logs and yes, my finder had been crashing repeatedly.
next I removed the preferences files from the library, rebooted from the CD and ran disk utility to repair preferences. since then my computer has been stable.
there were some preferences that didn't get repaired when I ran disk utility. I am copying them here to refer to later if I need to. I don't understand what these mean to me:
Warning: SUID file "System/Library/Filesystems/AppleShare/afpLoad" has been modified and will not be repaired.
Warning: SUID file "System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/DiskManagement.framework/Versions/A/Resources /DiskManagementTool" has been modified and will not be repaired.

Since updating to IOS 5.1.1 on my iPad 2 I have lost sound on all my apps through the speakers, still there on earphones and music plays normally, any ideas?

I installed the latest update yesterday and today my music plays fine but all of my apps only have sound through my earphones and nothing at all throu the speaker. Is anyone else having the same problem? How do I get it fixed?

Have you got notifications muted ? Only notifications (including games) get muted, so the Music/iPod and Videos apps, and headphones, still get sound.
Depending on what you've got Settings > General > Use Side Switch To set to (mute or rotation lock), then you can mute notifications by the switch on the right hand side of the iPad, or via the taskbar : double-click the home button; slide from the left; and it's the icon far left; press home again to exit the taskbar. The function that isn't on the side switch is set via the taskbar instead : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4085

IWeb Videos and Music Play on iPad but not MacBook

Hi,
I have created a website on iWeb and everything plays perfectly on my iWeb. When I launch the site on my MacBook and my husband's MacBook Pro, however, the videos and audio clips do not come up, and they just are blank with a gray "Plug-In Failure" in place of the video. But I can play them just fine on my iPad and iPhone. We are both running Lion--is that the problem? Please help!
Thank you,
Adrienne

What's the URL of your site so we can examine it first hand? What version of iWeb and what browser are you using.

Belt clip magnet, sleep mode and music

Basically my question is, if I get a belt clip for my Blackberry Curve 8330 and it has one of those magnets that uses the proximity technology to put the phone into sleep mode, will that prevent me from listening to music on the phone while it's in the belt clip?
BlackBerry Curve 8530
OS: 5.0.0.937
Carrier: Boost Mobile CDMA
16 GB microSDHC card installed

No, the magnet will not keep your songs from playing. I use this method daily. Select the media player, songs and play. Insert in your holster and enjoy......I do this frequently at work and enjoy my 400 mp3's while working. You can adjust the volume to suit your preferences. Incidentally, my volume was reduced by almost 50% when upgrading to the new 4.5 OS. I used MP3Gain and it normalized (improved the volume significantly) my songs and I'm happy again.
I love my magnetic catch holster and would not be without it......even bought a spare. It provides great protection but it is still possible to accidentally dial a number while holstered if you are using speed keys and lean against something that activates a key. For that reason, you may want to lock your BB (depress the k key) prior to holstering if you think your activities may cause this to happen.

What are my options for in car charging AND music playing for iPhone 3G?

Ok, before you direct me to the other threads, I have read them, and I still don't know what product I can buy for my 3G that will charge my phone and play music in my car.
With my original iPhone I was using the Griffin iTrip FM transmitter. It always gave me that message to ask if I want to switch to airplane mode. I would pick yes or no, then it would charge and play music.
When I plug in my 3G I get the yellow triangle warning that says this device doesn't charge this phone (paraphrasing of course). It appears that it will play music, but if it won't charge my phone then I'm going to run the battery down fast. I rely on being able to charge my phone a bit during the day in the car.
I do not have any AUX port in my car or any kind of iPod hookup in my car that I am reading about on other threads. As far as I know, an FM transmitter or a cassette adapater (I do have a tape deck) are my only options. However, since my husband's car that I drive on the weekends to work does not have a tape deck, I would really prefer a device that does not use a tape (also my previous experience with a tape adapter is that they stop working after a short while).
The power port in my car is nearly at the floor, nowhere near the dash, so any device I use cannot require me to rely on the "on device" controls to control the music.
I see this on amazon
*Griffin PowerJolt Car Charger for iPod and iPhone (Black)*
*Technical Details*
*¿ Enjoy full use of your iPod or iPhone during car trips, and arrive with your battery fully charged.*
*¿ Includes detachable Dock Connector to USB Type A cable that can be used separately to connect your iPod or iPhone to your computer.*
*¿ Includes USB Type A to mini-B cable so you can charge while using Griffin iTrip or other dock connector devices that have built-in pass-throughs.*
*¿ 2 Amp automotive blade-type fuse protects against spikes and surges and is easily replaceable.*
*¿ Works with iPhone, iPod models that feature full-size dock connector, and iPod shuffle (1st generation).*
And in another thread, people reported that the Griffin powerjolt DOES work with the 3G, so does the above description mean that I can use this device with my iTrip to charge and play music?

My Pioneer iPod car audio adapter cable does NOT charge my iPhone 3G and they have no plans to change this at this time.
I have a cheapo Griffin car iPod charger (the kind that has a plug for the cigarette lighter and a separate cable that has a mini-USB on one end and a dock connector on the other) and it DOES charge my 3G iPhone.
Go figure, but for now there it is.
Someone HAS to be working on an adapter that goes between the 3G iPhone and a dock connector device to fix this charging issue (which I guess has to do with the last iPhone and many iPods being able to charge via USB at 5V and/or FireWire at 12V but the new iPhone only charging via USB at 5V)

Album title shows and Music plays, but photos will not play in slideshow

iPhoto 8 latest version
Macbook Pro
10.6.8
i'm working on a clients computer and he is having issues when he selects images within an album anywhere between 3-10 photos. Clicking on Slideshow button to start it. It will come up with the full black screen with slideshow settings - hitting play will start the music and show the album name..after that its a blank screen; none of the photos are coming up.
I tried selecting other images in another album and same issue.
I closed iPhoto and removed com.apple.iphoto.plist to the desktop and restarted iphoto with no change.
The only other thing I can think of is rebuilding the library. but I do not see any issues with the images within the album.
My client said that he noticed this after his son-in-law attached his iPad to the machine. But nothing was changed. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

What do you see if you try to edit one of those photos? Do you see this in the window?
Click to view full size
As a first attempt at a fix make a temporary, duplicate copy of the library and apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
Fix #1
Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
Select the options identified in the screenshot.
Fix #2
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
Click on the Create button.
Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

Odd coverflow glitch and music playing issues

I'm having an odd problem with the coverflow on my ipod where some album covers appear as a pixelated mess. Also i have an issue where during the song (or at the beginning) it will go quiet for about 20 seconds or more and then continue playing effectively skipping 20 seconds of the song or in some cases the song will be not play at all. I have a 4th gen ipod touch running iOS 4.2.1, i recently had some trouble performing a restore (itunes error 37 =s) and it took near 5 attempts to get my ipod restored.
Any help is appreciated

Thanks for response.
This was not an issue with any iPod in the past, but I usually list my albums in more a category way than the actual album name.
With over 3000 songs, many one song from an actual album, I'd have so many albums it does not make a lot of sense (to me) to organize one's collection that way.
So I listed my albums as: Rock, Folk, Jazz, World Music, Classical, etc., etc. That helped (me) organize the large collection better. So maybe Coverflow in the iPod Touch 2G is reading all these categories only once. I don't know why - as I said previous iPods I've owned (Incl. the Classic) showed each artist and "album" in Coverflow.
As I say, I saw no point of listing by actual album names as much of my collection is not by an actual album, by a song or two from each album.
However, my way of organizing helped me. If I just wanted to hear Rock (and not Classical, Jazz, etc.), I would just click to play my Rock album.
Under Genre, I would break it down further. For example, under my World Music 'album," I would list songs by country: Mali, Italy, Cape Verde, etc., etc.
At any rate, I wonder if this is the glitch under iPod Touch 2G - it only reads my album categories once and just lists the first song only under each.
